Given 81% while driving a Nissan Qashqai (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 10,000 spirited miles
Fitted these to the front wheels of my Qashqai for the autumn and winter months on the back of the 2014 all season test. The dry grip is good but slightly lacking on some of the better summer tyres, however ive struggled to push them to the limit. They can be a little understeery, but the car is so difficult to tell how much the tyres are to blame.
Wet grip is great in cornering and braking I have pushed the car on occasions but have not managed to reach the limit in the wet.
In the snow we had in South Yorkshire this winter the tyres were great, lots of grip in deep and compacted snow, I had a few oversteering moments due to the summer tyres on the rear the grip on the front being so strong.
After 10k they are about half worn so wear rate is good as well.
Overall a great all round tyre, performance in all conditions is great for normal driving.

Given 86% while driving a Fiat 500 (225/45 R17) on mostly motorways for 10,000 easy going miles
The Falkens replaced the cheap (and nasty) no-brand tyres the Fiat came with when I bought it. Had them on the car for 6 months and it's been great, far more responsive and feedback from the road and feels like all the other summer tyres I've had in previous cars e.g.... Michelin Primacy, Continental Sport etc...

Main reason for purchase was to deal with the occasional snow in the UK... Only had 1 day of snow in the last 6 months and it was hard compacted snow in the estate where I live. From experience with summer tyres the car would have slid quite easy under moderate braking. With the Falkens I couldn't get the car to skid even with very hard brake testing! It was if the snow wasn't even there.

Also got a set of Falkens for my Skoda Yeti 4x4 which the wife drives - same feedback but also quieter than the previous tyres (can't remember the brand, they were the original set fitted to the car). Must admit they weren't great in light muddy / greasy grass conditions in a field albeit this isn't the tyre's strength.

Given 94% while driving a Citroën DS5 2.0 Hdi (225/50 R17 V) on a combination of roads for 1,500 average miles
I put these tyres on my Citroen DS5 for the winter months. Now I'm thinking about leaving them on all year, such is the transformation from the frankly awful Continental Sport Contact 3's they replaced. Although I should point out that I have also dropped to 17 inch to 18 inch wheels.
That said I am very pleased with the Falkens. They have so far performed very well although there has been no snow since I had them. They feel very secure on cold wet and icy roads. In milder conditions they feel fine too. They are very comfortable and quite. The only difference between them and a summer tyre is the turn in which is a bit softer. Almost no wear visible after 1500 miles. Overall, excellent value for money.

Given 81% while driving a Saab Automobile 9 5 2.2 TiD Linear Estate (215/55 R16 V) on a combination of roads for 5,000 easy going miles
Good tyre overall. Compared with the preceding Bridgestone All Season (A001), 30% cheaper, 30% Higher wear rate (about the same as Goodyear summer tyres), more prone to aquaplaning on the motorway but also more comfortable, quieter overall and easier to turn steering. They are not directional, which may help with life as they can be rotated (unlike the A001). Contrary to published reports, the A001 was better at gripping on snow.

Given 100% while driving a Ford S Max (225/50 R17) on mostly town for 0 easy going miles
Having had all season tyres on previous cars and requiring new tyres on my current vehicle I was always going to go back to all season. I used this website to decide which suited my needs and ended up going for Falken Euroall season AS200. We're only just encountering the cold spells of winter and I can confirm i am more than happy with my choice of tyre. We are driving along routinely without any complications compared to other road users within the town. There is clearly a need for these at the moment and I would definetly buy again. Not really done high mileage on them so couldn't comment on wear but I didn't want to leave a negative feedback with out due reason.

Given 93% while driving a Volkswagen Golf 1.9 Tdi (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 14,000 spirited miles
well i bought a set of 4 last october, i drive for a living and often push the car to its limits to get my jobs done fast as possible, grip is about the best on a car i've had from any tyres to date, i'm often out at my partners on dartmoor so wet roads are a big problem on summer tyres as i have found out again and again, so with this in mind and fact if theres guna be snow we will have it i bought these all rounders.!

so dry, great grip all round, however i find the tyres slightly soft and pushing to the limit they stick fine and still know they are going to keep you on the road.!

in the wet? all i can say is wow, the tyre really switch on their super powers.! the tyres seem to stiffen up and i can push the car well over its limits and still grip the road with utter confidence.! i've seen a good few bmws off tying to keep up in my golf as i fly round corners at ????? not telling speeds lol, not once have they lost grip in deep puddles ect, we are talking racing through deep ones which would normal take your car to one side or another and twitch, these just blow me away each time.! with confidence you plough through in straight line and "NEVER" get the wander, its as if they are glued firmly to the road

i can gladly say these are the best tyres i've owned to date.! and finding them for around £50 each delivered well worth every penny
almost a year on and the fronts are just about on verge of needing a change, the rears are still in good condition and ready for another years worth of driving

Given 93% while driving a Mercedes Benz c 220 cdi (205/55 R16 H) on mostly country roads for 5,000 average miles
Fantastic all rounder, especially quiet and comfortable. Changed from dedicated summer and winter tyres and very glad, in my opinion you don't need either in the UK really. These Falken AS200 give complete confidence, dry or wet, car never feels anything but assured. Eliminated fish tailing when pulling out at junctions, fuel consumption not affected vs. bridgestone turanza. Small amount of under steer at the very limit, but merc 220 is not really a car to throw around anyway so we'll suited. Excellent value, not tested in snow yet but you can tell they will cope well as it's clear they remain flexible and grippy in sub zero temperatures.
